Domaine Metrat

Domaine Metrat

Metrat is a small domaine that has small parcels of vines spread across several communes in Beaujolais. It is owned and run by Bernard Métrat and his father-in-law Michel Chevalier.

This is a traditional domaine with the Gamay grapes being hand-harvested and then undergoing a short fermentation of 6-7 days. The wines are then aged in wooden casks for 6-9 months.

Fleurie is one of the ten Cru villages located at the northern end of the gently rolling and extremely photogenic hills of the Beaujolais appellation. The poetry of the nomenclature, allied to the beauty of the terrain, with dreamy views of the Alpes, have helped to built its reputation as the most aromatic and elegant of village wines.

The granitic sub-soil of the famous 'Roilette' lieu-dit, allied to a whole-bunch fermentation for its Gamay grapes, are the building blocks that have enabled M Metrat fils (Bernard) to construct one of the best wines in the appellation in its Fleurie, VV Roilette.
